Tuesday on the NFL Network’s “NFL AM,” Marshall was asked if there is a better wide receiving tandem in the league than he and Alshon Jeffery:

“I say this humbly: I don’t think so,” the Pro Bowl wide out said. “We work so hard and we have great coaches around us. Coach Groh does an amazing job coming over from Alabama, from a college team to the pro league and really making a tremendous transition. He’s really pushing us every single day, he’s putting us in uncomfortable situations to make us better.

“You would think as a nine-year pro that ‘you got it’ – I don’t, and I love that about coach that he can bring out more. Honestly I really believe with the year under Groh that I’m going to have a better year next year – my best year ever.”

So who is the absolute best wide receiver in the NFL?

“I say this humbly, if I had to build an organization, the first receiver I’m going to pick is myself,” Marshall said. “I have that much confidence in myself.”
